Pure Football Podcast - Is Pep Destroying Football? Ft Jordan Northcroft
I caught up with Sunday Times' Jonathan Northcroft who wrote an article on "how Pep Guardiola and data destroyed" football's beautiful variety. We discuss and debate the merits of the Pep school of footballing philosophy, starting from Cruyff, to those now copying or taking forward Pep's approach.
Here's Jonathan's article, which is a must-read: https://www.thetimes.com/sport/footba...

Pure Football Podcast meets Mutaz Barshim & Gian Marcotamber
I have had the most wonderful chat with Mutaz Barshim and Gian Marcotamber (the two high jumpers that decided to share gold in Tokyo Olympics) in the Gala of the Aspire Academy Global Summit in Rome if front of an audience that felt captivated by these two special human beings. What a story they have to tell.
In fact it is so wonderful that I decided to do a podcast about it.

Julen Lopetegui - The Current Situation at Wolves Revealed
I spoke to Julen Lopetegui about Wolves and he explained with a very calm voice the alarming situation he finds himself in. You have to listen to the Spanish manager. It is very difficult to hear so much honesty and sincerity.

Pure Football Podcast with Luís Figo
The transfer of Figo from Barcelona (where he was captain and symbol of a way of understanding the game and football) hurt many people. And it is not clear how it all happened. That is why it remains fresh in our minds. With the release of The Figo Affair on Netflix, I decided to speak to its two directors, the award-winning duo David Tryhorn and Ben Nicholas, and dissect the documentary but especially the ins and outs of the then World-record breaking deal.
